1-2 per plant is perfect when they're small, we had only 1 per plant (5 plants) and ours were kicking ass. Trick is keeping them damn close to the leaves. Unless the leaf actually touches the light, it will not get hurt. If you go to a hardware store, find some shop lights. They look like an extension cord with a light socket (with a round reflector ) on the end. They usually have a clamp too. Keeps you from needing to wire stuff, plus the clamp makes for easy placement (look at the pics I posted in the grow log in my sig) We took the reflectors off because it lets light spread out more so all lights cast light on all plants instead of 1 light per plant, and hung them from chains to make moving them up and down easy.

Keep lights close, plants won't stretch. If your seeds do stretch, you can splint them up with a soda straw split lengthwise around the stem untill you transplant, then you just bury them up to about an inch below the bottom leaves. The stem you bury turns to roots.

Also, find a cheap oscilating fan. Outdoors air moves plants which causes the stems to thicken up. Inside there is no wind, so you'll get weak stems. Weak stems = weak buds. Wait til your plants have 3-4 sets of leaves before putting one on. Keep us posted :rasta:
